I tried Mac years ago in the mid 90's and was not impressed. But the new Macs running OSX are LIGHT YEARS ahead of anything Microsoft makes. Light years. OSX makes all the difference. It's the smoothest, Fastest, and most elegant OS I have ever seen.

Macs market share has risen from 2.2% in 2004 to over 8% today (and over 10% of the home/consumer market) and there is a good reason for it. It simply blows away the competition.
If the market share gets up much higher though, the hackers will start going after Macs. At the current levels, it isn't worth their effort.
